* Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
February 25, 2000, the district court’s record shows that it was
entered on the docket sheet on February 28, 2000. Pursuant to
Rules 58 and 79(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, it is
the date that the judgment or order was entered on the docket sheet
that we take as the effective date of the district court’s
decision. See Wilson v. Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir.
1986).

PER CURIAM:
Emilia Portillo appeals the district court’s order granting
summary judgment in favor of Appellees in Portillo’s sex discrim-
ination action. We have reviewed the record and the district
court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we af-
firm on the reasoning of the district court. See Portillo v.
Nordstrom, Inc., No. CA-98-794-WMN (D. Md. Feb. 28, 2000). * We deny
Appellee Jorge Silva’s motion to strike portions of Appellant’s
brief. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
